Plot summary
Yu Shun-tin once belonged to the Ching Hing triad, whose rule forbids drug dealing. When the gang leader, Yu Nam, learns that his other right-hand man, Jizo, has been running a drug business at his nightclub, he orders Yu Shun-tin to cut off Jizo's fingers and expel him. Yu Shun-tin, whose father was destroyed by drugs, leaves the triad himself. Years later he is a billionaire financier and philanthropist married to the lawyer Michelle Chow, while Jizo has become one of Hong Kong's biggest drug lords. Chief inspector Lam Ching-fung of the Narcotics Bureau leads raids against the trade. Yu Shun-tin offers HK$100 million for the head of the city's number one drug dealer, and the bounty stirs the underworld.
